The last day...

If an individual, a sane one, is told that he/she told the he has to live only a day before he passes away, what can we expect the emotions building up to be?  One thing is that the rush of adrenaline will be high. But yes, he/ she will rush through time.
What will you do? Maybe go on to fulfill your dreams, fantasies, earthly duties etc. Maybe, be with family, meet up long lost friends or even go on the path of forgiveness to reconcile. But what can we see in all of it? Is it not the urge to keep a smile or give away some to others.
Surely enough none of us will be provided such a chance to know it before-hand. Surely if I get the chance, I will rather add the questions of how and where. So living life like its your last day seems better, NICKELBACK in their song ‘today’s your last day’ says the same too, the undying spirit in the movie DASVIDAANIYA. Do we need more? Ok I agree that smiling always is not that good, but quoting my teacher “smiling is good for your health”, it seems a better option.
So coming back to the question, what will you do my dear reader who took all the pain to just be facing this question? Post some answers till I come up with something else. Goodbye.

Memories...


It had been a very un-productive month for me, literally, so here goes this month’s post. I had been pondering what to write about this time and then a friend of mine just made me remember the word MEMORIES. Truly speaking, there is something in this word and this world that always tends us to compare a situation with a similar one in the past and derive satisfaction from it. During the days of studies, the lower classes as we go past them feel so good. Is it so that we have grown up and are now able to hop over that hurdle or something else? The memories of a place where we stay always pulls us towards it, is it so because of the cocoon effect it gives us?
Ruminating these memories is another pastime. Old and young, fat and thin, boy and girl and almost any other bizarre combination of two or more persons opens a huge avenue of topics which even though going by a single topic a zillion times doesn’t seem to tire the participants!! Whatever be it, if anything can be a better stress buster than this which can be availed free of cost I will be all ears.
Technologically again this word like our human demands is almost endless, those were days when someone had quipped that 256 MB will be the maximum limit for the memory capacity on a computer system. Now it’s the race in terabytes, petabytes and zettabytes and more. We have so much but do we use all? I doubt.
Sorry my dear reader I seem to have gone astray a little too much. Just a word before finishing, cherish your memories and to quote a friend “To learn 4m our past...apply dat in present ...to mak a better future,,.dats called ''conscious living''!”. Sayyonara…
